How to Use This Calculator
- Enter Number of implants, Attachment type (1-3), and Arch (1-2).
- Set Bone quality (D1-D4).
- Review the Total retention force (N) result.
- Use Implant count adequate (0/1) and Stability score (0-100) to inform your decision.
What each input means
- Number of implants
- Number of implants supporting the overdenture.
- Attachment type (1-3)
- 1 = Locator, 2 = ball/o-ring, 3 = bar.
- Arch (1-2)
- 1 = maxilla, 2 = mandible.
- Bone quality (D1-D4)
- Misch bone density classification.
What each result means
- Total retention force (N)
- Combined retention force from all attachments.
- Implant count adequate (0/1)
- 1 = meets minimum implant recommendations for the arch.
- Stability score (0-100)
- Overall prosthesis stability assessment.
- Component replacement (months)
- Expected interval between attachment component replacements.
- Annual maintenance ($)
- Estimated annual maintenance cost.
- Est. total cost ($)
- Estimated total treatment cost.
How this is calculated
